Gemma Atkinson's daughter Mia sees dad Gorka dance for first time - and our hearts just melted

Gemma Atkinson shared a special moment with her toddler daughter as she took Mia to see her dad dance for the first time.

The Hits Radio host and her two-year-old daughter were in the audience for Strictly Come Dancing pro Gorka's tour Firedance with co-star Karen Hauer.

The show came to the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, and his wife and daughter were bursting with pride to see him on the stage.

Two-year-old Mia was so moved by the experience she told her mum on the way home that she wants to follow in Gorka's footsteps and become a dancer too.

Former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale actress Gemma shared a video clip from the night and wrote on her Instagram: "Mia got to see Papa dancing for the first time last night.

"She absolutely loved it and in the car driving home she told me she wants to dance.

"After watching him on tele it was so nice for her to finally see him live doing what he does best."

She added: "@gorka_marquez We’re very proud of you! For anyone who’s going to see @firedancelive you’re in for a treat! Enjoy."

Steph's Packed Lunch host Steph McGovern told her: "Ah that's so amazing."

And Gorka replied with a love heart.

Gorka and Gemma met on the 2017 series of BBC dance contest Strictly when Gemma was a finalist partnered with Aljaz Skorjanec and Gorka was paired with singer Alexandra Burke.

They welcomed Mia on July 4 2019 and they got engaged on Valentine's Day 2021.
